Glide along the unspoilt Tropical Coast aboard a luxury catamaran, snorkelling crystalline Mediterranean coves and sipping cava as the Sierra Nevada shimmers on the horizon — the most glamorous way to spend a port day without leaving the water.
What to expect
You board at the marina adjacent to Playa Granada — minutes from port — and set sail along a coastline of dramatic cliffs and glassy turquoise water that most visitors never see from the land. Snorkel stops reveal sea-grass meadows, colourful reef fish and the kind of underwater clarity that makes you linger long past your intention. Back on deck, the crew serves cold drinks and local snacks while the sail home delivers golden-hour views of the coast. You're back at the marina with time to spare before all-aboard.
Good to know
Ideal for those who prefer a relaxed, scenic half-day rather than a full day inland. Departure is from Playa Granada marina, a short taxi from port. Book in advance in summer — capacity is strictly limited. Snorkel equipment is provided; bring reef-safe sunscreen.
